It's like they don't want you at the ballpark! There is always TV and radio, plus it doesn't cost an arm and a leg for food, beverages, and parking. Also, no line for the bathroom.
It's a pity as Baseball was our national game. Frankly, I have given up on ALL professional team sports. Screw their kneeing for the national anthem, their changing of the national anthem, their support for all the BS DEI we had shoved down our throats under Biden, their toleration of sicko, self-centered, overpaid and pampered pompous-ass players... Screw them and their game(s). They will never see another penny of my money. I don't go to their overpriced games, I don't watch them on the television or even listen to them on the radio. I don't need them and certainly don't want them - ever again.
In the 60s I spent a good part of 2 summers hanging around a MLB ballpark, a great memory of my youth, when ball players had winter jobs to make ends meet. As noted, pro sports is shit these days and with all the sports sponsored by the legal sports betting outfits, it is just a matter of time before there is a major betting scandal.
The only sports teams that I have ever followed were my high school, my college and the University of Alabama. My high school was consolidated, and my college sucks big time since moving from Division II to Division I. My family went to a lot of Alabama football games in Legion Field, but I haven't been to a game since Coach Bear Bryant died. Lots of great memories from those days.
Meh. I watched my last game when the greedy bastards went on strike and didn't play the World Series in 94.
Baseball was one of the last true sports that didn't go all corporate, now they are just as woke as the rest! Only one worse was when NASCAR went full semi auto retard, anti 2nd, anti American, I quit them all. Played baseball as a kid in school, Little League was both amazing and heartbreaking, that was when I discovered the dark side of sports, the petty scandals, the cheating, all that, and I stopped playing by the end of my sophomore season! I still like to watch the kids playing, it's still a mostly pure sport, plus, I get to eat sno-cones and not look stupid! I refuse to watch any thing collage and higher, it's all about the money now, and no longer about the sport! We didn't need to have team tryouts, you wanted to play, you played, you might not be varsity, but you still got to play!
